Small Gods Brewing Co. Otis! – American IPA at 6.8% ABV (C$6.35 at Collective, 473 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 23-Aug-2024, reviewed 9-Sep-2024)
Appearance: hazy straw with two fingers of fine white head, excellent retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: citrus, stone fruit, cereal grains. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Palate: smooth medium body, moderate-soft carbonation, medium duration finish tending very slightly sharp. (3/5)
1019 and El Dorado hops. Pleasant enough on the front end, but there’s a little something through the mid and finish that I’m just not completely sold on – almost melon rind-like, or a hint of tartness that doesn’t quite belong. Better than just OK, but a bit shy of great. (15/20)
This will be my 5,935th unique Untappd check-in.
